On the Rate of Convergence in the Invariance Principle for Weakly Dependent Random Variables

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We consider nonstationary sequences of φ -mixing random variables. By using the Levy–Prokhorov distance, we estimate the rate of convergence in the invariance principle for nonstationary φ -mixing random variables. The obtained results extend and generalize several known facts established for nonstationary φ -mixing random variables.
